Our work here is done.

Good job everyone. I am curious as to which War on Drugs it is, but I don't think that can be gleaned from the hints.

For very selfish reasons, Future Weather would make me happy.

I feel that way with Wagonwheel Blues

yeah, nothing for me here. Looks like I'll be skipping a bunch of months in a row unless they have some other exclusives pop up.

I can neither confirm nor deny the speculated answers (), but those just four of 18 we have lined up to announce the rest of the year, so I'm sure you'll find something you like!

I signed up last month for the Divine Fits record. Any recommendations for this month? I see some talks of people skipping...

I think a few people said Bedouine sounds great.

Thank you all. Admittedly, I was unaware of this artist until I saw these comments, so I decided to check the album out due to these glowing endorsements. I can see this being added into my rotation. Cheers!

All of her albums are excellent. I got to see her here in Sacramento a few months ago.

I saw her prepandemic. She opened for Hurray for the Riff Raff and Waxahatchee. It was a pretty great night.

God Loves Ugly

Bandbox has the vinyl word. Exclusive colored vinyl + original artist fanzines.

I would suspect this to go pretty fast especially the hand poured vinyl.

If this is the same remaster from the 2019 3lp, then you can buy with confidence. It fixed all the issues from the awful sounding 10th anniversary.

Signed up with the 50% off code for the white/marble. The red one was already sold out unfortunately

Now Here's Johnny Cash showed and I'm spinning it now. Almost through the second side. I can say on initial spin that it's a better pressing than the first two. This one is perfectly flat (Very nice to get two very well pressed records in a row from Bandbox!) And only has a few minor pops between tracks and in the run out wax. But recording quality/mastering of the first two was better than this one. It's not bad, just not as dynamic as they were. Either way I'm happy with all three and hope we get news on the fourth soon.
